I can only echo the other contributions as this hotel is the pits! It’s tragic; it could not be in a better location! It’s in one of the best cities in Spain it’s by a marina a beach a city shops and restaurants. I hope Tryp/Melia management read these reviews and go to the hotel and retrain the staff. There...

You cannot miss this hotel on the skyline as it towers above Alicante. We stay in Alicante about 4 times a year and in fact used to live there. When we were booking our wedding anniversary trip I wanted something central and this came up at what looked a fair price. I now know why it is cheap but I... More

This hotel has a superb view of the Harbourfront if you pay the extra few euros to get a sea view room. That, plus the good buffet breakfast and good location however, cannot make up for the fact that the rooms are shabby, scuffed and very worn appearing. How it ever earns its four star rating is a mystery. We... More

I stayed two nights at this hotel, and during the day I kept my laptop in the hotel room. I came back in the evening and my laptop was gone!! When I reported it to the hotel staff, they were NOT very helpful at all!! Very disappointed!
